WheelsTV Video Reports
WheelsTV Video Reports provide consumers with essential vehicle purchasing information by giving car shoppers the ability to easily search, research, share and compare cars, trucks and SUV's.[4] The run time is approximately two minutes and includes vehicle information essential to consumer purchases and ownership. Information includes vehicle specifications, fuel economy, class, size, passenger capacity, standard and optional features, safety features, and warranty information.
POVs are a subset of WheelsTV Video Reports. POVs review vehicles that are no longer in production, and are likely to be found in a pre-owned dealers' inventory.[5] A POV video covers an entire generation of a particular vehicle and points out potential problems that might arise in each year of a generation. To create this product, available data is gathered on each vehicle including information from actual consumer experiences as reported to J.D. Power and Associates, government and private testing agencies, and independent analysts. These findings are combined with archival footage, from WheelsTV's library, OEM footage, and IIHS and NHTSA crash test data.
